Cyber Group Hacks BLM Sites 117 Times, Vows to Continue Until Leaders ‘Discourage Racist and Hateful Behavior’
In just six months, Black Lives Matter’s main website and its affiliate sites were hacked 117 times by an anonymous cyber group looking to drive home the point that “All Lives Matter,’ according to a new report.

The document, published Wednesday by Canadian nonprofit eQualit.ie, which offers digital support to prominent civil and human rights groups, showed that a collective known as the Ghost Squad Hackers first infiltrated blacklivesmatter.com in April. The group went on to launch 100 denial-of-service attacks on the social justice movement, accusing it of “fighting racism with racism.”

“We have taken down a couple of your websites and will continue to take down, deface, and harvest your databases until your leaders step up and discourage racist and hateful behavior,” said a computerized speaking voice in a cryptic YouTube video uploaded by the Anonymous-affiliated group titled “Anonymous Exposes Anti-White Racism.” “Very simply, we expect nothing less than a statement from your leadership that all hate is wrong … If this does not happen, we will consider you another hate group and you can expect our attention.”
